Spacek later said that Badlands changed the whole way she thought about filmmaking. "After working with Terry Malick, I was like, 'The artist rules. Nothing else matters.' My career would have been very different if I hadn't had that experience." In subsequent years, Sheen would often cite Badlands as his best work.
The film's score makes repeated use of the short composition Gassenhauer from Carl Orff's Schulwerk, and apparently also uses other pieces from the Schulwerk. The same piece was used for a scene in the film Ratcatcher as well as the films True Romance, Monster and Finding Forrester.
"Malick's 1973 first feature is a film so rich in ideas it hardly knows where to turn," wrote Dave Kehr for The Chicago Reader. "Transcendent themes of love and death are fused with a pop-culture sensibility and played out against a midwestern background, which is breathtaking both in its sweep and in its banality."
